Want to use equality and human rights more effectively within your organisation?

Our Equality and Human Rights Framework is a free digital toolkit for and by the voluntary and community sector (VCS). It will support you and your organisation to embed equality and human rights into your work, and improve outcomes for the people you support.

In partnership with Liverpool Charity and Voluntary Services, we are delivering two workshops for North West VCS organisations, based on our digital tool.

Travel bursaries are available on a needs basis. The deadline for registration is 1 April 2019.

Take part in international survey on human rights

The Human Rights Measurement Initiative is the first global project to track the human rights performance of countries. Once a year they ask human rights experts to share their knowledge about human rights in their country through a survey. This year they are looking for input from the UK.

The information collected aims to help those working to improve human rights. The survey is aimed at human rights practitioners, journalists, lawyers and researchers monitoring human rights.

If you’d like to take part, please fill in your details on their registration/consent form, and you’ll receive a link to the survey within a week.
